Abstract
The article presents a general picture of higher education institutions offering journalism undergraduate, graduate, and doctoral programs located in different parts of the Russian Federation. Monitoring websites of all the universities with journalism education discovered 150 such institutions. They are unevenly dispersed around the country, but represent a unified system financially supported and quality controlled by the government. Educational institutions mainly in state-owned but also private universities teach future journalists at undergraduate as well as graduate levels following international degree systems. Training is mainly in Russian but also in several national languages enhancing cultural pluralism. The article also discusses media revolution that is challenging journalism education in diverse market conditions.
